[Feature request] Program to autostart when Unicorn Remote is started about unicorn-remote HOT 2 CLOSED

An easy way around is through crontab. Not specifically what you're asking for but works ok.
Adding the line
@reboot . ./run.sh to crontab

with the run.sh script along the lines of

#!/bin/bash
cd unicorn-remote/
sudo pipenv run python run.py
curl -X PUT localhost:5000/api/program/demo

should start the application on reboot and send a PUT request to start the demo.

Also thanks to @njbbaer for making this repo 👍

Thank you very much for the curl suggestion, that works like a charm.
I've put the matrix program on autostart with:

curl -d "brightness=0.1&rotation=180" -X PUT localhost:5000/api/program/matrix
